Put the Vcore to +0.1 and the Vnb to 1.3, with ram timing on 2T still. This so far is stable. I am running Prime95, its only been going for 15 minutes, but thats already longer than my system has worked when running at 1600. So if this is stable, ill keep this for a while, and save it in the BIOS. After that ill experiment some more to get it stable at 1600. Thanx for the help though. If i ever get it stable at 1600 ill post it.
I'm pretty sure that you were being too conservative with voltages...sounds like your lockups at 1600 were voltage related. Try putting the vNB at 1.375v and run some more voltage to the cpu, like maybe +0.15v. If it is still unstable, add more volts to the proc. By the way, what is your VID?
